M

Yesterday's letter of the day was..

M! (oops! We are a little late in posting!) We "stole" this idea directly from -

No Time For Flash Cards

so I gotta give them credit for how well it turned out!.

We've never shown a picture of it, but we're taking all of our letters and making them into a border along the wall - here's how it's coming.

Halfway done!!!

For M day, Jasey made Muffins all by himself! All I did was Measure the Milk and put it in the oven when he was done - he stirred it all up and scooped them out into each cup - I didn't have to assist him at all! I was sure a proud Mommy!


Mmmmm!

Here's the books that we've read most recently -



"Marshmallow" wasn't at all what I was expecting, and was definitely too long to keep Jasey's interest the entire time. He really seemed to enjoy "K is for Kissing a Cool Kangaroo", however, and since it covers the entire alphabet, we can read it anyday that we want! Of course, we still have the favorites on hand and read them over and over and over.

Muffin Tin Monday - Making Faces with M's

Today's theme for Muffin Tin Monday was "Faces", so I tried to incorporate that with the letter of the day - M!

First off, there was Macaroni and Cheese with a Ketchup and Mustard smiley face (it's a lot harder to draw with Ketchup and Mustard than I thought it'd be! lol) Then there was Marshmallows, Maraschino Cherries, and Mandarin Oranges. I told Jase to use those 3 things to make any face that he wanted. Here's what he came up with -

I was so impressed that he did it all by himself, without any guidance what so ever!

He didn't like the Maraschino Cherries, but he ate everything else! I wanted our last picture to be a picture of a "Milk Moustache" face but he didn't want to be messy, so that didn't turn out :(
